BOOBY TRAPPING HIS APARTMENT WITH EXPLOSIVES

James Holmes rigged his apartment with elaborate planning to lure someone inside, activating a trip wire, and setting off a domino effect of explosives. The plan seemed to be to divert emergency personnel from the theater to his apartment, giving him more time to make the death toll higher and more time to escape. Loud music was playing and the door was open. One neighbor went to the door, but did not go in.
